While there may be times decisions must be tabled due to sudden, more pressing matters, if decisions are constantly being derailed, it is probably more a result of letting yourself get distracted than necessity.
Christ-like Decision-Making Guards Against Getting Derailed:
Read through the Gospels, and you will find that in the thirty-three years Jesus lived on this earth, especially in the final three years of His life being His official ministry years, He accomplished far more than anyone else who ever lived did in a full lifetime. Jesus kept His eyes on the goal and did not allow Himself to get derailed.
The Steering the Church Toward Christ-like Character Leadership Guide also looks at the missing Christ-like quality behind derailed decisions.
